We always choose Cote because the food, the staff and the service are excellent. This branch is very convenient for theatres and the Rewards scheme is a bonus.

Good food at a good price but out of all Cortes in London this one feels very much as though you are packed in like sardines, everything feels a bit rushed , but service is good as is food and obviously it is in a very busy area.

Fixed price lunch was good value for money.The service was efficient and friendly even though the restaurant was busy.The decor was pleasant and although the restaurant was operating to maximum capacity, noise levels never became intrusive and the there always seemed to be a comfortable amount of space around the seating arrangements.

My friends and I are now in out sixties. We have grown up together but now live so far apart. When we get together for our "lushes lunch" we always choose Cote as the menu is great and you have one of our favourite wines. Thanks.

Location good, food good , service good, but why is the service charge already shown on the bill, do not like this at all, should be down to the customers discretion without out pressure from Cote

This restaurant is located very close many west end theatres. The good food and friendly staff make dining here before or after the theatre an absolute joy and a must to complete the day. The set menu which changes every month, has a good selection of dishes with something for everyone, and offers excellent value for money. I have been a regular customer of cote restaurants for over three years the food is consistently excellent, and the service exemplary. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

The restaurant was very busy, we were late, having made a reservation.....the staff were welcoming and very understanding. Drinks came and our order placed......then we waited for about 30 minutes for our food. The kitchen was obviously under pressure but he staff were excellent.

This is a busy but comfortable restaurant with quick and friendly service. The food was well flavoured and interesting, especially the excellent crème caramel. With a glass of good wine and coffee the pre-theatre 3-course menu is very good value.

Usual excellent value and always reliable steak frite. The score would be higher if the lighting were better - I could barely see what I was eating. My complaint on leaving was met with an inane comment that it was darker outside! I also have my doubts that the glass of wine I ordered had a full 175ml - it seemed pretty small.

Table in far corner by windows, which meant no one passing table and it made for a more relaxed time than sitting in the middle of the restaurant. V pleasant food and wine as usual - the balance here is more toward the tried and tested than the novel. So a familiar but reliable option when you just what to chat over a meal midweek.

Excellent Service from all staff this afternoon at lunch time. The New March Set Menu with whitebait as a starter and Seafood linguine as a Main was Delicious and satisfying. I would highly recommend the Tavistock Street Cote Restaurant for consistently delivering Good service and Food. A must when you are visiting London. Good value food and perfect for Theatreland.

The food was very good, as usual. The service was good. As it is a great place to go for inexpensive, good quality food the restaurant was full up and just felt slightly rushed and squashed up. Overall a very good experience.

Ideal lunch stop prior to a guided tour of the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Travel delays meant we had to put our booking back 15 minutes: no problems and we had a pleasant table, with good service in a tight timescale. The two course deal was ideal, and the steak frites authentic and tasty, washed down with a glass of house white. Our fourth visit to a Cote this year, consistent value-for-money offer every time.

Gluten Free meal was served barely warm and was replaced by a fresh dish which resulted in the other 3 diners needing to eat rather slowly whilst waiting with their meals becoming cooler in the process.

The service was excellent and the welcome from all the staff was very pleasing. The food was just perfect we had the fixed pre theatre menu which had sufficient variety for our requirements and was most keenly priced.
